Hi, I am 64 and with high cholesterol too. I have been a vegetarian for many years. I recently added salmon to my diet. My LDL was over 200. Total 266. I took my 1st statin yesterday. It was 5mgs. It did make me feel a little sick for a short while. But quickly passed. Was told it was hereditary too! Good luck with the other issues. I'm with you I take as little meds as possible.

Thanks! I took my first a few days ago and it made me pretty sick...just trying to healing from lymphocytic colitis and I am terrified to irritate my slowly healing digestive system! Based on your experience, I will try it again...
